  • the funds may be allocated to reduce debt in the fasted way possible. For example, the funds may be applied to certain credit accounts in a bi-monthly fashion in order to reduce the amount of interest accrued. Furthermore, higher interest accounts may be paid down while lower interest accounts may only have minimum payments made.
  • a determination may be made as to how to reduce the customer's debt as quickly as possible.
  • a determination may be made as to how to increase the customer's credit score as quickly as possible. For example, even after a credit account has been paid off, it may be determined that keeping that credit account open may be the best way to increase the customer's credit score. Alternatively, it may be determined that the customer's credit score may be most efficiently increased by consolidating a number of credit accounts into one single account, roll the credit accounts into a refinanced mortgage, etc. Consequently, based on the customer's current debt and/or credit situation, a dynamic determination is made to increase the customer's credit score which is tailored to meet the customer's specific situation.
  • such a determination may be calculated using information from the customer's credit report on the day it is calculated.
  • the PLUS score may be based on multiple factors such as: payment history (i.e., information about the way the customer has paid their credit accounts in the past, including late payments, bankruptcies, etc). Credit accounts may also be a factor (e.g., the number of credit accounts that that customer has and the different types of those credit accounts: credit cards, auto loans, etc.). Credit usage may be an additional factor (e.g., the amount of credit the customer is utilizing, the amount of credit still available, etc.).
  • the length of credit history (e.g., the number of months the customer's credit accounts have been on the customer's credit report), credit applications (e.g., the number of times the customer has applied for credit in the recent past), and bankruptcies (e.g., the presence and age of bankruptcy records (if any) on the customer's credit report) may each also be factors in determining the customer's PLUS score.
  • One example of how such a PLUS score may be determined is as follows. Assume that bank A is offering a credit line of $20,000 @ 9.99% fixed rate if the customer's income greater than $75,000 and the customer's credit score is greater than 700.
  • bank A is offering a credit line of $30,000 @ 8.99% fixed rate if the customer's income is greater than $85,000 and the customer's credit score is greater than 700. Also assume that the customer has an income of $90,000 and a credit score of 734. Further, assume that the customer's revolving accounts are greater than 2, the customer's total balance is less than $30,000, and that average weighted annual percentage rate (APR) is greater than 8.99%. Accordingly, it is best for the customer to consolidate revolving accounts 1, 2, and 3 into new maximum credit line of $30,000, and close the existing revolving accounts 1, 2, and 3. This algorithm is merely an example and much more complex algorithms may be used. Such algorithms may have many additional variables and potential outcomes to consider when providing the solution.

  • a determination may then be made as to the amounts needed to be allocated to the customer's expenses and/or creditors (process block 210).
  • the determined amount of funds may be held by the payment center.
  • an analysis of the customer's current credit account rates may be preformed (process block 220). Specifically, determine the interest rates for the customer's current credit accounts and the type of interest (e.g., simple interest, compound interest, etc.) of the accounts.

  • a partner may be a credit card company, a mortgage company, an auto loan company, etc.
  • the partner may not be in the credit business, but may be a utility company (e.g., cellular phone provider, home phone provider) with a plan that is less expensive than the customer's current utility plan. Nonetheless, the payment center, based on the partner's offers and the customer's current financial situation, may choose appropriate offers from the partners to present to the customer.

Abstract

L’invention concerne divers systèmes et procédés pour optimiser un risque de crédit et réduire une dette de manière active. Le procédé comprend la réception d’un rapport de crédit comprenant des comptes client, des soldes, des taux d’intérêt et des types de taux pour les comptes client. Le procédé reçoit en outre des informations de compte bancaire et de feuille de paie, ainsi que des informations de dépenses fixes et variables. Le procédé génère ensuite un rapport financier basé sur les informations reçues. Sur la base du rapport financier, le procédé calcule une quantité de paiement et détermine le revenu disponible sans affectation. Une allocation du revenu disponible pour une réduction de dette et une optimisation de risque de crédit est reçue et le procédé alloue dynamiquement les fonds pour payer les comptes client, les dépenses fixes et les dépenses variables de manière que la dette du client soit réduite et que le risque de crédit du client soit amélioré.
